Pets in Windows Etc.

"Pets in Windows" are part of my "daily sketches" created from photographs.

I see a lot of  pets looking out windows and watching me and my labrador Lexie while we are on our daily walks around Centretown and Lowertown, Ottawa. It always makes me smile and I always snap a picture to sketch later when we get home.

Some pets seem curious. Some seem sad (like they are hoping for their owner to return?). Some seem to be just relaxing and enjoying the warmth of the window sill and the view. They all pose politely for me and Lexie.

They seem so happy to be noticed.

I thought it would be fun to just keep all of my Ottawa Centretown "pets in windows" sketches in one place on my blog.
